Bugfixes
Issue with correctly assigning Agile Hive Administrator groups after app installation: Fixed a bug that caused random user groups to be displayed as holding the Agile Hive Administrator permission after installing the app from Atlassian Marketplace. This issue was purely visual and has been resolved.
Primary Scrum board detection not working as intended: Fixed a bug related to the automatic detection of a Jira project’s primary Scrum board for use with Agile Hive for Team-level projects. This bug caused iterations of PIs to not be accurately mapped to their corresponding Jira Sprints in the primary board, rendering Team Planning Boards unusable.

New Features
‘Expand / Collapse All’ toggle in Team Planning Boards: Team Boards now feature a new toggle switch that enables expanding / collapsing of all currently visible Feature swimlanes on the board.

Bugfixes
Some Report widgets stuck in loading state when refreshing: Fixed a bug that caused certain widgets in Reports to become stuck in a loading state when refreshing data.
Modal does not reset on Cancel when creating new PIs: Fixed a bug that caused the modal dialogue to retain old data for date input fields when the user canceled the process of creating a new PI and started over.

New Features
New ‘ART PI Objectives’ Report Widget: Reports for projects at the ART level now feature a new widget that provides an overview of all ART Objectives for the selected PI, along with a comprehensive view of the Business Value Delivered by all Teams operating within the ART. Moreover, the widget computes the ART Business Value Delivered based on the average across all Teams. For more detailed information on PI Objectives of a specific Team, simply click on the Team panel to navigate directly to the Team’s individual Reports.
‘Update Data’ button for Reports, Team Planning, and Roadmap Boards: As the majority of Agile Hive’s views showcase real-time data, it's possible for changes to occur (especially in the context of PI Planning) while you're viewing a particular page. To keep you informed about the currency of the data you're working with and to promptly refresh the view with the most recent information, we have included an ‘Update Data' button in the top right corner next to the 'Help' menu. This button not only indicates how long it has been since you last updated the data but also allows you to do so with a single click. One significant advantage of updating only the data instead of reloading the entire page is its lightning-fast performance - try it for yourself!
Bugfixes
‘ART PI Overview’ widget now displays all ART issues worked on in selected PI: Fixed a bug that caused the ART PI Overview widget to only display ART level issues planned using the ART Roadmap Board. It failed to include ART issues not in the Roadmap Plan but being worked on in the selected PI based on Stories planned at the Team level, which is contrary to its intended functionality. The widget now includes all ART issues being worked on in the selected PI.
March 14, 2024
New Features
New ‘ART PI Overview’ Report Widget: Reports for projects at the ART level now contain a new widget offering comprehensive insights into all planned ART issues for the selected PI. The ‘ART PI Overview' widget showcases details on WSJF, Assignee, and Progress, along with aggregated Story Points from issues across all teams operating within the ART, across all workflow categories. Furthermore, you can delve further into tracking each team's progress in delivering their portion for every ART Feature. If a Team is behind the plan, you can investigate further by clicking on the Team's icon to directly access the relevant report.
Improvements
Improved visualization for ‘Assigned PIs’ field in Jira Issue Create dialogue: When creating a new Objective or Risk issue, you now have a more convenient way to directly input Assigned PIs information. The input field for Agile Hive's 'Assigned PIs' Custom Field has been redesigned, offering an enhanced interface and user experience.
March 5, 2024
Improvements
Locally calculated Risk Exposure and WSJF Value in Reports: To promptly show accurate Risk Exposure and WSJF values, Agile Hive has implemented a feature where these values are computed locally in your browser when you access a Reports page. Particularly, after generating new issues involving Risk Exposure or WSJF, the computation of these fields is only triggered once the issue has been fully displayed by at least one user in the Jira Issue View.
This is due to a current limitation of Atlassian Forge development platform. More information can be found here: Technical Limitations. We’re closely monitoring the development of Forge platform and intend to further improve this functionality in the future.

New Features
Conveniently create Objective and Risks from the Reports page: Objective and Risk widgets in the Reports page now provide a convenient way to directly add new issues of the correspondent type. Simply click the ‘+' button in top right corner of the widget panel to display Jira’s ‘Create issue’ modal that is already filled based on the project context you’re in. After creating a new issue the Report widget updates automatically without need for a full page reload.
Improvements
Adjusted zoom factor in Solution Train Roadmap Board: To better reflect the time periods planned in the Roadmap Board of a Solution Train project we adjusted the default zoom factor for the board.

Bugfixes
List of Agile Hive Administrators not displayed in Jira Administration: Fixed a bug where the display of user groups assigned with Agile Hive Administrator permission was not functioning in Jira Administration of the app when there were over 1,000 groups on the Jira site. The limit has now been extended to 5,000 groups.Please be aware that depending on the number of user groups, it may take up to 30 seconds for the list of groups added as Agile Hive Administrators to appear.
“Unable to find the primary board of the project”: Fixed a bug where the user was prompted with an error message when displaying a Planning Board of a project on Team level. Fixing this bug required adding new capabilities to the app’s scope resulting in this version being considered a major release (11.0.0) by Atlassian.

In this version, an existing Custom Field has been changed. It is recommended that a Jira Administrator reviews the Agile Hive components in Jira’s app administration and recreates any missing statuses, workflows, screens, issue link types, Custom Fields, and other schemes. Also, the Custom Fields should be reviewed and added manually to the respective Screens to make sure all Agile Hive functionality is available to the users of your site.
You can find an overview of the minimum required configuration for projects on each SAFe® level here: .
Improvements
‘WSJF Value’ field is now of type Number: To enable sorting options for issues prioritized with WSJF in Agile Hive, the 'WSJF Value' Custom Field has been updated to a Number type.

Additionally, the field will now show a maximum of two decimal digits to enhance readability.
